Strangest experience.
Just before waking up this morning I "visiualized" a word. It appeared a letter at a time until it was entirely formed- sort of lilke a guy painting a sign. The word: Assilite It doesn't appear to exist in English, but I find references to it in French, Italian, and Latin. Probelm is, it googles up in the middle of a phrase written in French, Italian, or Latin. Aside from my first guess, "sounds like a somebody having a portion of their anatomy on fire" haven't got a clue....... Thought somebody in this group might know, as we have a Canadian who may know something about French and some highly educated types who may know Latin. Fairly sure it must be OT, unless it turns out to be some foreign term pertaining to boating. :-) Weird word. |

A possible flashback to a youthful experience with a lighter and dark room full of friends? |

I think it is a engineered granite counter top that was in one of the boat links in rec.boats. You have spelled it in correctly, but it was mfg'ered in Aussie and used through the boat. But I could be wrong. |

In French it apparently means "to jump up upon" Wonder if it has any linguistic relationship to assault or assail? Strange, anyway. :-) |
